Full-spectrum $aving$!

I just got a "Drs Foster & Smith" bird catalog in the mail today, and just have to share this with every bird nut! You know those black "hanging bird lamps" that connect to the side of a cage so your bird gets the correct lighting? Well in the most recent catalog they have them for nearly 70% off, originally about $125 now only $40! I am seriously thinking about buying one myself as with winter coming, it's harder to take the fids outside or keep the windows open for them! Whenever I'd see the lamps I thought it'd be nice to have at least one, though I wasn't about to pay $125 for one! FYI the website is www.DrsFosterSmith.com, though I"m not 100% positive you can get the savings when ordering from the website or if it's only when you order from the catalog. Anyway...just thought you'd all like to know. :cool:

Thanks for sharing. I love that catalog and their selection of bird items. Most pet stores that I have gone in don't have near the selection. I've often wondered about those lights and how my birds would like them.

Jenny - you have a comma in the web addy but if a person types it in, it is ok. The fixtures are not in the 'sale' stuff. They are in the bird section. in lighting or cage assecories, etc. YThat is a really good deal. I think lighting is one of the most overlooked items in aviculture. thanks for leting us know!

Jenny,
I will go to the site. However, in case it is only available thru the catalog - will you please post the number to call the store here &
item # of the light. Thanks for the info and help.

Hi Jenny,

I went to the site and found two items I like. One is item #CC-696413 for $39.99 and has a swivel hood, glare free illumination and provides natural daylight without heat. It attaches right to the cage.

The other was a Clamp Lamp Fixture Item#CC-231157 for $15.99 and can be used with spot bulb or a ceramic heater emitter. I liked the fact it was dual use. However, the bulb must be purchased separately and I think brings the entire cost up to 30 or 35 dollars. It also can be attached right to cage.

I found an 800 phone number - so I don't need a number anymore. Also, ordered a catalog. Was wondering if the item number of the first was the light you were referring to.

There were a few other light fixtures and lamps but these had to hang on the wall away from cage. I liked the fact that the above two attach right to cage and that way I can remove them in the summer.


Forget to say thanks.............so thanks for bringing the sale to our attention.
